Located 1700m above sea level, Taif can feel like a refreshing change in the summer, especially when compared to the humid conditions of Jeddah. Its mild, temperate climate is its main draw. Keep an eye out for wild baboons along the mountain roads as you approach the city from Jeddah. Taif is a great place for families, with over 3000 garden parks spread across the city and its surrounding areas; in the evenings, these parks are filled with families enjoying a full meal on blankets. Some bring sheesha, filling the night with a sweet, smoky scent. Taif isn't famous for its restaurants, so purchasing everything you need from a market and having a picnic is a fantastic alternative. The city is especially popular among tourists for its roses and fruit – particularly honey-sweet figs, grapes, prickly pears, and pomegranates. During the summer, Taif becomes the unofficial capital of the Kingdom when the king moves here.
